Hope For A Second Chance
CELL DOGS
Our Mission
Our mission is to choose dogs from city and county shelters that require socialization and training, which we place with one of our incarcerated trainers.
Despite facing jail sentences behind bars, our trainers, along with help from our K-9 Unit, have forged rehabilitation models and set a precedent for other programs to follow. By incorporating highly effective dog-training methods with proven rehabilitative standards, we are indeed saving lives on every level by lowering euthanasia rates and preparing dogs for service jobs.
Cell Dogs are available for adoption through Gulf Coast Humane Society, Lee County Domestic Animal Services, and the Cape Coral Animal Shelter; therefore, we encourage you to visit their websites for a listing of available Cell Dogs graduates.
